Creative Money: How to Create Access in the Film Industry (Even Without Connections) w/Zaq Latino

If you're a creative professional with a big idea—your dream script, your flagship film, or a passion project that finally feels aligned—but you don’t know how to get it made or funded… this episode is for you.

Joyce Mishaan, Executive Producer and career coach for filmmakers, sits down with actor, writer, and indie filmmaker Zaq Latino to unpack exactly how they took their film from script to funding—without knowing studio execs or major industry gatekeepers.

Whether you feel stuck in a creative-adjacent career, are craving more autonomy in your work, or don’t know how to bridge the gap between idea and execution, this conversation gives you the real steps to start building traction today.

In this episode, you'll learn:
- How to get your indie film funded without connections
- Why your first investors will likely come from your warm network
- The mindset shift that helps artists stop waiting for permission
- How to use strategic outreach to build a powerful team
- A step-by-step example of a cold email that landed an Executive Producer
- The key difference between a project that gets momentum and one that stalls out

Plus, how Zaq raised over $30K for development before shooting—and how you can do the same.

✨ This is your roadmap to getting your film made, even if you’re starting from zero.
